Boxes Galore!

For several months I have been working on some new designs based on Andy’s palm boxes. It’s been a blast coming up with the designs, although all of them are at least based on ideas I have seen here. I learned a long time ago there is seldom a totally new idea in woodworking, just our own combination of what we have seen over the years.

I now have some on consignment at some high end gift shops here in town.

The first box is Figured Maple, and of course, Bubinga. Some of you are disappointed if I don’t use it. With bronze bushings with bubinga plugs.

#2 is Mequite top with crushed torquoise inlay. Box is Zebrawood
#3 is Mahogany and Figured Maple
#4 is Walnut with a little Maple accent

As usual, you’ve done a stella job on the boxes…...What is a palm box? Not sure I’ve ever heard of it before. I’ve never tried to make a box…..I think I’ll leave that up to the great box-making artisians like yourself.

Hope you get a lot of calls for them at the local shops around town….you’ve just to have the right person to walk in, see your work, and take it home….Keep the projects coming…..Thanks for posting….. Rick.
